Very saddening and frightening... The poor poor parents. Truly a horrible predicament. All their happiness and peace of mind snatched away so fast, and that too due to the negligence and callousness of others, beginning with the dangerously careless pest control company and ending with the scarily incompetent hospital staffers. My heart aches for them..
And sad as it is that it had to take a situation as grave as this, there are great lessons to be learned here. I was never aware that a neighbor's PC procedures could be so fatal. Something to be extra cautious about hereafter!
And the hospital too should be reprimanded and severely penalized. Malpractice at its worst!
